Do you have a workaround for this error: terminate called after throwing an instance of 'std::runtim

I have a power mac g5 running OSX 10.5.8. My hard disk crashed, and I put in a new one. Now all of my software needs to be reinstalled. I am far away from my home office and only have my backup disks to use for reinstall. I have CS3 and Cs4 on backup disks. I tried to install CS4, and got an error that looked like this:
UI mode: Full GUI
terminate called after throwing an instance of 'std::runtime_error'
  what():  Invalid path passed to FileSystemPath constructor.
I thought maybe I needed to install CS3 first, so I did that with no problem. But now it's asking for my serial number, which I do not have for CS3. I do have my serial number for CS4.
With CS3 installed but not activated, I still get the same error.
How do I install CS4 on my computer?
Any help you can give me would be greatly appreciated. Thanks very much.

Since you weren't able to deactivate your software before the hard disk crashed, you'll need to get assistance from our support staff. You can contact them through chat at http://www.adobe.com/support/contact/?issue=myOptions_activate
Be sure to have whatever serial numbers you have on hand (and make sure to register them).
